I
already have a domain name and a web site that I paid
for. Do I have to pay you again?
No,
you don't have to pay again. We can transfer the domain
name to point to our servers, as long as the domain
name is registered in your name or your organization
name. We can also transfer the web site files from
your current host to our host. Or if you prefer to
leave them on your existing host, we can do that.
We will simply need the password access to your current
host. We do not charge any transfer fees.
If you build my web site will I be able to make changes
to it later?
Yes.
We use industry standard platforms and software for
all our work. If there are certain portions of the
web site that change frequently, talk to us about
building administrative tools, so that changes can
be done by non technical or secretarial staff.
Do
you build "Flash" based Web sites?
Yes
we do. In fact we have special talents in this area.
"Flash" is used to enhance the interactivity
of a site, to provide animations, and create experiences
that make the user say "Wow!" It
can also be used as an entertaining explanatory method
to get a point across.
Our experience shows us that only a small percentage
of site users want to be dazzled. Most simply want
information presented in an interesting, clear way.
We use Flash judiciously to accomplish this. Flash
can be used to make the right impact on the minds
of your viewers. Usually, we use Flash as an entry
page. We also use Flash to create individual elements
within a site. Sometimes, we use it to create complete
self-contained presentations.
We
have had a web site. It just sits there. It hasn't
done anything to help our business. What are the possible
reasons?
Usually,
it boils down to not defining your Internet presence
goals. You need to clearly understand and define your
reasons for being on the Internet. After we do this
together, we can then work a plan for achieving your
objective. Sometimes, the solution requires promoting
the web site. In other cases, it may require making
changes to the site.
How
much does it cost to build a web site?
It
depends on a number of factors - such as the number
of pages and the comprehensiveness and complexity
of the pages. Simple pages containing text and photos
are easier to build that pages involving special features
and special effects and design elements. Also development
costs can be reduced by proper definition work up
front. Our business model enables us to deliver high
end sites at a cost significantly lower than our competition.
After an initial consultation session, we are able
to give you some estimates for design and development.
Isn't
it better for me to use my Internet Service Provider
to host my web site?
No.
Web Hosting should be tied to Web Site maintenance rather
than to your Internet Service. By having the same company
handle your Web site maintenance and your web site hosting,
you eliminate the technical issues that would have to
deal with in case of web site malfunction.
We
already have web site hosting and our email system set
up with another company. We don't want to disturb it.
Can you still take care of my web site?
Yes.
Although we recommend that you host with us, we do
not require it. We can still make changes to your
site on an ongoing basis, if you make the password
information available to us. We may not be able to
make use of traffic monitoring tools and productivity
tools we have available on our host.
You
claim you provide "high end services" at
low prices. Where is the catch?
There
is no catch. Our business model enables us to significantly
reduce our costs, which we can pass on to you in form
of lower prices. Our technical team consisting of
highly qualified and experienced designers and programmers
is physically located offshore. We are able to employ
these technical resources at relatively low costs
compared to USA. We have built a solid infra-structure
that enables us to achieve high quality results in
less time and with less cost compared to our competition.
This concept is not different from what you may have
seen in manufacturing industries.
When
somebody does a keyword search on the Internet, why
doesn't my site show up?
In order for your site to be picked up on a keyword
search, your site must be known to the "Search
Engine" that is being used. These are many different
Search Engines used by different service providers.
These engines use complex rules to figure out what
site to show depending on what keyword is typed in.
The rules have been changing constantly over the last
few years. We have developed an extensive expertise
in this area. Our clients' sites do show up on the
top. Contact us for more details..
Can
you make minor changes to the web site that was created
by someone else?
Yes,
in most cases. Our team has a wide range of experience
using a wide range of software and services. Unless
your web site uses some obscure software or non-standard
features, we can certainly take over the maintenance
of the site. In any case, we will be happy to look
at your site at no cost to you and give you an assessment.
We
have in-house technical expertise. We just need help
on a specific project. Can your programmers work on
our project?
More
often than not, the answer is yes. And, most likely
we can get your project done to your complete satisfaction
at costs lower than you thought possible. Check us
out.
Can
you guarantee that my site will rank on the first page
of Search Results?
We
can research the keywords (key phrases) that you need
to focus on; do a bit of research on those phrases
(we check the popularity and competitiveness of the
key phrases), and then give you an assessment of what
efforts are required to achieve top rankings on each
Search Engine. We are so confident of our expertise
in this area, that we are willing to work on a "results
based fee". i.e. we get paid only if we achieve
the rankings that we commit to.
Why
shouldn't we host the site on our own computers? We
already have broadband connection to the network.
Hosting
the site involves a lot of technical activities that
are performed in the background and during off-hours.
Customers do not see these. It is these activities
and infrastructure that enables us (or any other professionally
managed hosting company) to provide 99.99+% reliability
and high-speed access to your web site. These activities
include backups, built-in redundancies, ongoing update
of system software, keeping up with the technical
changes, 24 hour on-call, performance monitoring -
just to name a few. It is usually not justified for
a small or medium sized company to invest in Information
Technology resources and expertise that is needed
in the long run. It is more cost efficient to let
a company like ours host the site for you.
